Until seeing this, I hadn’t thought about how hellish life must be for people living in the battleground states. Everyone in my office is deathly sick of political ads and that’s with almost no presidential pitches (Obama lost this state by fifteen points in 2008). Dear Lord, what must it be like in Ohio? Remember her torment every time a politician dares claim, “it’s for the children!”
